After approx. two weeks of uptime. This host always has some network
activity, and when it happened, it was either running or had just finished
making backup of about 1200MB (from few ext3 to one ext3 filesystem).
kernel was still alive to network pings and services responded, but trying
to ssh failed (just hanged there before opening session but after giving
last login info). telneting to pop3 port worked, but upon authenticating it
also hang - so I'm assuming VFS or specific ext3 filesystem is hanging.
kernel is 2.2.19pre7 (with openwall patches, although it should not matter),
ext3 is 0.05e.
All filesystems are ext3 (in journal data mode).
Machine is PIII/600 with 128MB RAM, 300MB swap.
Journals are 5-15MB in size. Partitions are 150MB to 7,5GB.
